Time, January 13, 2012.

Tianjin, light snow.

Ge Wei felt that he was about to be squashed.

He couldn't figure out how the "Weizuizi" were so keen on pancakes, which he once thought was the patent of his hometown. Even after living in Tianjin for two months, Ge Wei still stubbornly believed that the pancakes and fruits in his hometown were the most authentic.

Following the natural surge of the queue, Ge Wei took a small step forward, and then stretched out his right hand and touched the pocket of his washed white jeans, which was the seventh time he had done this this morning.

It wasn't because the person squeezing to his right was a beautiful girl's upright ass, but Ge Wei clearly knew that if the little thing in his pocket was missing, then, in such a ghost weather that could exhale water vapor, he wouldn't have a good day today.

"Shop, a portion of the pulp, give half of the white fruit more!"

"As the first black president in U.S. history, Obama will deliver a speech at the White House on the afternoon of the 9th local time, focusing on the sensitive issues of black Americans ......"

"Hey, why are you unreasonable?

Ge Wei's ears were filled with the morning news and the cacophony of the crowd. He didn't care if the yellow-haired young man at the front of the line asked the cook to add half an extra egg, or whether Obama was going to speak. Now, he is thinking about whether to buy another soy milk after he buys pancakes and fruits. If he doesn't buy it, he can save money for the bus tomorrow morning, and he wants to sleep more tomorrow morning, if he buys more soy milk. It can also keep himself from being hungry and distracted this morning, and his living expenses have been overdrawn a lot this month.

While struggling to weigh the pros and cons of these two. Ge Wei was also a little apprehensive in his heart. Not for soy milk, of course. Not even more so because of Obama, but this morning's exam.

Ge Wei touched his pants pocket for the eighth time. Stuff is still there.

As a graduate student in theoretical physics specializing in cutting-edge technology of semiconductor materials, Ge Wei consciously survived the baptism of nine years of compulsory education, and he has long been out of the ranks of "examination syndrome". And the reason why every time I think of the exam that will be held this morning, I feel anxious, like a little woman who has just come to my aunt - Ge Wei thought to himself - is because the success or failure of this exam will determine whether I can add one more pancake fruit at the same time as I buy a pancake fruit and a soy milk every morning in the future.

Oh, yes. Sometimes. Even Ge Wei himself thought it was funny.

A small citizen like him thinks about nothing more than what to eat for the next meal every day, and the reason why he thinks about this is because then he has the opportunity to think about what to eat for the next meal, instead of starving to death.

Eating is to make the next meal better. This conclusion is heavy and philosophical.

Ge Wei did not like philosophy.

He was a little cold and shrunk his neck, his lean neck and protruding collarbones made him look a little malnourished. He swayed, and took another step forward as the line swung.

"A pancake fruit. Right. No soy milk is required. Ge Wei took out a crumpled five-dollar piece from his jeans pocket and handed it to the middle-aged woman in the window, and while waiting, Ge Wei raised his head and looked at the TV hanging in the lobby of the restaurant, his eyes were about to leave. The morning news was still playing on the TV. It is said that the situation in the motherland is very good.

"It's right to go to the toilet during the day and not soy milk if you drink too much. Ge Wei took the recovered dollar and carefully stuffed it into his pocket. Gently patted it. This is the ninth time this morning that has been done.

"Ah, that's cool......"

Ge Wei felt a burst of warmth spread to his lower abdomen. The excitement made him a little uncontrollable. This feeling is only once a day, and Ge Wei doesn't want to let it go easily.

One of Ge Wei's hands was in his clothes. Through the two layers of his coat, his hands could still be seen moving up and down on his lower abdomen.

Ge Wei enjoyed the pleasure while walking towards the school gate with firm steps. It is less than 500 meters from the noodle shop to the school gate, and many students who have not eaten breakfast come here.

A college girl walked from opposite Ge Wei, saw Ge Wei's hand, blushed and lowered her head to sip, spat away, and ran away at a faster pace.

Ge Wei sighed, and realized that his behavior was inappropriate, so he reluctantly took out the hot pancake fruit from his clothes.

The pancake fruit, which had lost its heating function, was quickly wiped out by Ge Wei. Facing the cool breeze and small snowflakes that came from time to time, Ge Wei burped.

On the road, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi shuttle endlessly, like a cloud of water flowing together, and they will not stop for a moment. Occasionally, a Lamborghini or Porsche is mixed in, causing other cars to give way.

Ge Wei only took a second look at this, and did not expect or pay too much attention to it.

As he walked near the school gate, he noticed a circle of pedestrians gathered not far ahead.

These people are men and women, young and old, and most of them are adults and university students. They gathered in a heap and seemed to be discussing something.

Some passers-by in a hurry, some of them also squeezed over to take a look, and then most of them chose to continue on their way, as if they didn't care.

Ge Wei came to the crowd and deliberately slowed down. He heard a conversation between a man and a woman next to him.

"Alas, poor thing, whose old lady is so careless. The man's voice said.

"That's right. The woman's sympathetic voice said: "I don't know where the relatives of this family are, do I know that something happened here." ”

"Alas, let's go, let's go, this matter is not in our hands, and we can't control it. I have to rush to work, I have to have a meeting in a while, and I have to deduct the year-end bonus if I am often late. The man urged.

Ge Wei relied on his height to be enough, stretched his neck, and looked into the crowd.

I saw a person lying on his side on the frost-paved road. Because he was standing on the back, Ge Wei couldn't see the man's face. Judging from the posture and clothing, coupled with the conversation between the man and the woman he heard just now, Ge Wei judged. This is probably an old lady who is over the age of six.

At this time, Ge Wei heard that the others were also talking.

"Looks. I've been lying here for a while. ”

"I heard someone say at the beginning that he fell, right?"

"Still alive, huh?"

"Nonsense. Didn't you see that you were still exhaling white air? Listen, there seems to be a sound. ”

"What a pathetic ......"

The crowd of onlookers formed a wide circle around the old lady, and everyone stood still, as if there was an invisible cordon on the ground, preventing everyone from taking one more step.

Ge Wei could see that these people were more or less sympathetic to the fallen old lady from their hearts, but no one seemed to plan to take any further action.

Ge Wei turned his head and saw that the man and woman he had just spoken to had gone far. It seems that the man is telling the woman something interesting. provoked the woman to cover her mouth with her little hand, and there was a burst of insincere laughter in the distance.

Ge Wei shrank his neck from the cold, he felt that he should not have destroyed the pancake fruit so quickly. It's getting colder.

"Daddy, why don't you all help that old woman?" asked a little girl to his father, her voice very childish.

The little girl's father did not answer, but took the little girl's hand and motioned for her to continue walking.

The little girl followed her father, slowly moving away from the crowd. She looked back at the circle of people step by step, and her clear eyes were full of confusion.

Ge Wei's heart was sinking.

Ge Wei prides himself on not being a good young man. It's not like he hasn't done it without littering, cheating on exams, and peeking at girls taking showers. Ge Wei felt that if he had a creed in life, then it must be the same as most Chinese people - don't be nosy.

However, Ge Wei does not think that he is a villain. If there is a gangster with a knife in front of him at this time. He would definitely not hesitate to run away. But the problem is that now there are no gangsters.

There was only a weak old lady.

Ge Wei took a deep breath, pushed through the crowd, and squeezed in.

In front of the "cordon". Ge Wei took another step forward. Ge Wei felt that this was the right thing to do.

"Hey, haven't you heard? Lately, there seems to be a lot of people who pretend to fall down, have accidents, or something. Then I will find an opportunity to blackmail you. ”

"yes, I've heard of it. It seems that there was a case a while ago, and it was still in an uproar across the country. ”

Ge Wei stopped suddenly.

The step I had just taken, and I stepped back.

"In this world, it's hard to be a good person. That guy who saved people seems to have been fined tens of thousands of dollars......!

"These days, good people can't afford it!"

Ge Wei's brows gradually furrowed. The conversation between the two people around him was like a stubborn stone, casting a wave in his heart that had just made up his mind, doubts, hesitations, and hesitations, like water ripples gradually rippling.

Ge Wei has also heard of what these two people said.

Although he usually spends most of his time either in the laboratory or hiding in the library management, he doesn't want to know about an event like this that once caused a lot of trouble in the city.

Ge Wei's mind flashed through the beginning and end of that piece. It is said that a passer-by saw an old lady fall on the side of the road, so he helped him out of kindness, but the old lady pointed out to his face that he was the perpetrator of the fall. After the theories of the two sides failed, they went to court. In the end, the court ruled that passer-by A and the old lady were not at fault, but out of the principle of fairness, passer-by A should give a little expression to the old lady for her losses and compensate 50,000 yuan.

The case was widely controversial at the time. Ge Wei still remembers that a few buddies in his bedroom discussed this issue, and finally came to the conclusion that if one day, they encountered this kind of thing, then they would hide as far as they could.

Ge Wei turned around and walked out of the crowd.

The chatter behind him can no longer be heard.

"Let's continue on my own path, there will be exams later. ”

Ge Wei let out a long sigh, feeling a little relieved in his heart. He is just the most ordinary college student, and he should not carry this kind of baggage. He turned his head to look at the end of the pavement.

The little girl, who had left with her father, was looking at him with that look of doubt and incomprehension.

This look......

Ge Wei's breath suddenly stagnated, as if something was blocking his throat. A cold and dry wind rushed towards him, causing him to burst into tears.

Ge Wei turned around again, squeezing into the crowd again.

This time, however, his movements became very determined.

He took three steps and two steps, came to the old lady, bent down and struggled to lift the old lady's heavy body, so that it rested on his lap.

The crowd around them suddenly became silent.

Ge Wei didn't care about the complicated stares that other people threw at him, and he found his mobile phone that had been turned off all the year round in his satchel, and prepared to call for an ambulance.

And at this moment, Ge Wei felt a pair of hands clamping his calves, so strong that he felt a little painful.

Ge Wei lowered his head and found that it was the old lady who was grabbing his calf.

The old lady's clear voice rang out: "Young man, you can't go...... You broke me, you can't just leave!"

Ge Wei, who had just dialed the phone, was stunned.

"Hello, this is the Nankai District Emergency Center...... Hey, please speak?...... Hey?......" (To be continued......)
